Connecting with Diverse Populations

Are you concerned with the current infant and maternal health disparities for families of color? Are you wanting to reach outside of your comfort zone to new demographics, but not quite sure how to make that first connection? Are you nervous that you might do or say the wrong thing? This interactive session is for you! Be prepared to role play and have uncomfortable conversations to explore what drives disconnection and discover tools and resources that drive connection across diverse populations.
